Pakistan's non-cooperation makes it difficult for the NIA to proceed with its investigations into cross-border terror strikes.
Tiffany biscuits, chocolates from the Netherlands, a knotted mountaineering rope and new Army fatigues made of fabric that is not available in India. These were some of the evidence gathered by the National Investigation Agency probing the latest cross-border terror strike on November 29 at an Army camp at Nagrota near Jammu. Seven Army men, including two officers, were killed in the attack, which followed a series of cross-border terror strikes unleashed by state and non state actors from Pakistan.
Sources privy to the investigation said the agency had got leads about two over ground workers (OGWs) of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, who ferried the terrorists to the camp in a white Tata Sumo. The NIA is searching for these OGWs to establish the chain of command of the attackers. It is also being suspected that the Nagrota attackers did not travel much on the day of the attack as their Army fatigues looked ‘’freshly worn’’, indicating help from locals or guides.
